1Tim:1-3

Listen to what Gods word says, it should govern all of your ways,

If you are a true disciple of mine. Don’t spend all of your time.

Discussing law and theory, Christ says just concentrate on me.

Live a life that is wholesome, so you are seen as a righteous one.

Despite what you have been, the grace of God can be seen.

For it is in faith you behave, to honour Christ who did save.

That wherever you see a need. You might be qualified to lead.

So that all people might see. The God who to them is mystery.

Mth. 27:11-26

Like Jesus we are on trial. Others still accuse all the while.

Nothing you can say to them, who are such deceitful men.

Even those who deep down know, are afraid that they might show.

Sympathy for me, though in authority.

They too now condemn, to satisfy the views of evil men.

Ps. 140

Lord rescue me from people, whose hearts dwell on what’s evil.

For you God previously rescued me, from all my troubles you set me free.

Do not let them now have their own way. They refuse to follow what they know you say.

Though their lives will finish disastrously, may your goodness be shown to me.

Prov. 18:21-22

What you now say, controls your day.
